Part I. Understanding RESTful Hypermedia
The difference between the novice and the teacher is simply that the novice has not learnt, yet, how to do things in such a way that they can afford to make small mistakes. The teacher knows that the sequence of their actions will always allow them to cover their mistakes a little further down the line. It is this simple but essential knowledge which gives the work of an experienced carpenter its wonderful, smooth, relaxed, and almost unconcerned simplicity.
